It was a really good enemies to lovers not the best but I'm hoping the next book will change my mind because they grew to care for eachother. The FMC is a total badass And I'm officially a Royce Stan 🤭 they had me hooked from the beginning.

God I love this series.
This is a re-read for me and I still can’t get enough!

Words can't describe how I feel about this book! Previously I read another book from the author but was urged to read this one. I'm glad I listened. Each character from Raven to Maddoc to Royce to Captain gets your heart strings moving!

You boys are ballers and you’ve set your game plan. But know something, packman… I may have a vagina, but I’m no pussy.”
This one quote can summarize just what a ball-buster this FMC is.
Love this series, and sometimes you’ve just gotta reread in order to find a little pep in your step. Gain some perspective and realize that sometimes a family are those that choose you, and who allow themselves to be chosen in return.

I’m not sure I’m patient enough to wait for the next one!!
This story was soooo good, mainly because I loved the characters and friendships. It dragged a little towards the end, but still... delicious YA angst, some super hot sexy times, and a feud lasting generations- what’s not to love?!?
Even though I often wanted to shake Raven, I still loved her. She’s independent, loyal, and genuine. As for the boys, they’re like fungus; they grow on you, and before you know it, they’re everywhere. They’re Everything.
”All I want is a life away from anyone who has ever heard my name, fucked my mom, or read my file.”
“This place isn’t like most high schools, Raven. Things are a bit different here then they are where you come from.”
A rescue means a price, a price turns into a favor, a favor becomes your moment of shame. Shame is what ruins you.
She’s more than a fucking wet dream – she’s a porn star come to life. She’s like a real-life Snow White, only better. More hair to pull on. Fucking trouble. Like we know everything that happens around here, we knew she was coming, but I sure as fuck didn’t expect a temptress in Timberlands.
I’m jaded, trailer park trash with nothing to lose. My life, minus a detail or two, is in a ten-page file in a group home down the street, a file he’s read.
“You’re mine if I say you are, you’re trash when I decide I’m done. And I’m standing here telling you I changed my mind. I’m not ready to throw you out just yet.”
“You better watch yourself, Raven. You’re Bray property now, and I’m done waiting for these fuckers to figure it out on their own. By the end of the day, every-fucking-body will know it well. No bitch will challenge you and no guy will touch you unless we say go, so you better trim them nails, Snow, wouldn’t want you to cut up your insides when you’re stuck finger-fucking yourself each night.”
“Fuck you.”
“We know you’re as capable as we are, Snow. It’s why you’re here.”
“You’re like a biker princess or rock goddess, wrapped in a fat ass, shiny Do Not Touch tape that only makes everyone wanna touch it more. You’re a little hood but still a Cali girl. They want to be you, imitate you, but they don’t know how.”
One day I’ll understand why I exist in a world I’m not needed in. One day.
“Three men already outnumber you, but add a female and a pack is born.”
“Where one goes, the others follow.”
“Nothing wrong with having people in your corner, Raven.”
“Sure there is.”
“Why’s that?”
“If your corner’s already empty, no chance of losing anything along the way.”
Family runs deeper than blood.

Raven!!
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this one, but I was thrilled that it wasn’t a hard-bully romance! Raven has so much baggage, and so do the boys but a lot of their life is still secret to us. I’m so excited to see what happens next!
Narration was fantastic! I only wish the guy had more! Lol
